We have previously used single nucleotide polymorphisms to detect an association of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in Caucasian Americans and Danes with the genome region 19q13.2-3, which contains several genes involved in the nucleotide excision repair of DNA. In this exploratory paper we have extended the data and used them in a chromosomal scan. The results indicate the presence of a gene variation modulating the risk of developing BSS in a submegabase region including and surrounding the gene RAI. Specifically, persons that are homozygous for the haplotype RAI intron 1(A) RAI exon 6(A) appear at increased risk for BCC. In addition, we have looked for possible synergisms between all pairs of markers. We find that a marker in GLTSCR1, presumably separated from RAI by several million bases, supplements the most significant marker in RAI in separating cases from controls, which may suggest the presence of an independent, risk-modulating variation in this second gene region.
